Obama brushes off Israeli pressure over Iran
Google News/AFP ^ | Sept. 23, 2012 | AFP

President Barack Obama likened Israeli pressure on him to draw a line in the sand over Iran's nuclear ambitions as noise he tries to ignore, according to remarks aired Sunday.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu recently urged the United States to establish what he called a "red line" regarding Tehran's nuclear program beyond which the United States would be compelled to act.

Obama, interviewed for Sunday's edition of "60 Minutes" on broadcaster CBS, said he understands and agrees with Netanyahu's insistence that Iran not be allowed to obtain nuclear weapons as this would threaten both countries, the world in general, and kick off an arms race.

But Obama added: "When it comes to our national security decisions -- any pressure that I feel is simply to do what's right for the American people. And I am going to block out -- any noise that's out there."

I don't we ever had a more anti-Israel president than Obama.

Are the US Jews still going to vote overwhelmingly for Obama?

You forgot to say that we've never had a more pro-Muslim terrorist President.

Arab Spring: a plan to overthrow governments and hand them to Muslim Terrorists. Egypt has gone well, Libya has a good start but Iran keeps fouling up the overthrow there.

Obama has done nothing to slow down Iran toward being a nuclear Iran. That is part of the Muslim plan to place the world under Sharia law and Obama has to fool the West just a little while longer.

“Are the US Jews still going to vote overwhelmingly for Obama?”

Yes, American Jews will vote for the Kenyan/Muslim/Marxist usurper. They would vote for Hitler if he had a “D” after his name. They are liberals/progressives/socialists/Marxists first, Democrats second, and Jews [secular, of course] last.
